Agreement
Solid Waste Disposal District (SWDD) Director Himanshu Mehta advised the
Board that Republic Services (RS) had notified the County that they would no
longer be able to transport the County's recyclables to St. Lucie County for
processing. Director Mehta presented the Board with an agreement from Bulk
Transport to assume the job of hauling materials. He advised that though the
costs were higher than with RS, staff felt it worthwhile to maintain the County's
recycling program.
In response to comment from Chairman O'Bryan, Director Mehta confirmed that
the County had just been notified that St. Lucie County was no longer accepting
recyclable material for processing. He added that his department still sought
approval of the agreement with Bulk Transport which would be implemented only
if processing resumed in St. Lucie.
A motion was made by Commissioner Adams, seconded by Vice Chairman
Earman, to approve staffs recommendation. The motion carried by the
following vote:
Aye: 5- Chairman O'Bryan, Vice Chairman Earman, Commissioner Adams,
Commissioner Flescher, and Commissioner Moss
